A new-look draw system is being deployed this season, with teams split into two bowls. Bowl 1 will include Champions League and Europa League clubs Manchester City, Arsenal, Liverpool, Aston Villa, Tottenham and Manchester United.

Bowl 2 will comprise everyone else, including Europa Conference League qualifiers Chelsea. A pre-draw will be made to determine the home or away positioning of the six clubs in Bowl 1 for the first six matches in the third-round fixture list.

No doubt this has been done to death already, but this is just compete bullshit.

Geordies are so needy and desperate aren't they. Tindall is in the right place. Literally, think they're in the cup final after winning on penalties in August.

Now for the long drawn out process. I used to enjoy the 12.30 straight to the FA, posh blokes in suits with no fanfare. Bert MIllichip should make a ghostly return.

Back in Sussex
Wimbledon, Wycombe, Barnsley, Barrow, Blackpool, Fleetwood, Bolton, Walsall, and Orient are all in the draw.

Wouldn't mind a random far-flung lower-league away tie for old-time's sake.

Failing that, Orient at home to absolutely hammer them. Again, for old-time's sake.

I seem to be missing something, i don't understand why not keeping the european teams apart means they cant play. They still have to play the league cup game, what difference does it make who the opposition is?

Don’t agree with is, but I can see why they’ve had to do it.

Carabao Cup Round Three fixtures will take place W/C 16 & 23 September, with fixtures in the Champions League (W/C 16 September) and Europa League (W/C 23 September) also scheduled during this period. The additional dates required in the calendar for European competitions are as a result of an increased number of games for the 2024/25 season.

To ensure there is no clash of fixture dates, conditions will be implemented during the Round Three draw to ensure a Club participating in the Champions League does not draw a Club participating in the Europa League, to enable the Round Three fixtures to take place in the alternate week.

Draw Conditions​

The Round Three draw consists of 32 Clubs – 25 winners from Round Two with the seven Premier League Clubs in UEFA competitions also entering in this round.

The UEFA Conference League, a competition Chelsea FC could be participating in, is due to begin in October and therefore has no impact on the Carabao Cup Round Three draw.

For the main draw, two separate bowls will be utilised:

  • Bowl 1 - consisting of the six UCL and UEL Clubs
  • Bowl 2 - consisting of the remaining 26 Club

How do they decide when to draw one from Bowl 1? Is it every fourth draw or something?
